# Exterior view [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [MANSART, François]() - Date: 1601-1650 - Technique: Photo ## Commentary The building is three-storey high, and the disposition is well marked by the sectioned roofs, flanked by tall, traditional chimneys and adorned with a dormer window for each volume. On the garden façade, there are empty niches between the windows on the middle storey. The most subtle handling concerns the projections on the entrance façade, with a three-level frontispiece. The orders are stacked in standard fashion, Corinthian above Ionic above Doric, and their entablatures reflect this progression: they are unbroken across the ground floor level, centrally staggered in the middle, and completely broken at the top. The picture shows the garden front. ## Related artworks - [Aerial view]() - [Aerial view]() - [Château de Berny]() - [Château de Berny]() - [Château de Berny]() - [Church and Convent of the Feuillants, Paris]() - [Elevation of the Hôtel Carnavalet, Paris]() - [Exterior view]() - [Exterior view]() - [Exterior view]() - [Exterior view]() - [Exterior view]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
